Chapter 408: Taste

In the night, half of the wine-colored Chang'an fell asleep, and half just woke up. (Baidu search.)

In the Kuixing Building, there are singing and dancing in the hall downstairs, the sound is intoxicated in the upstairs private room, and there are a few mandarin ducks hiding in the gallery in the backyard by the small lake.

The noisy and clanging sound of the pipa in the room came to an abrupt end after a high point, followed by "popping" applause and praise.

In addition to the maid, there were six people sitting in the room, four people sitting on the table opposite the screen, two middle-aged men, and two young men, behind the screen were two people, one sitting on a stool holding the pipa in his arms, and the other standing next to him waiting.

"Today, I heard the landlord's pipa, I'm afraid that the sound of the piano will no longer be able to enter my ears in the coming days."

"Hehe, Lord Deng has won the award, the pipa and the piano are two things, each has its own strengths, how can they be compared." This voice is pleasant to the ear, and even if you don't see anyone, you can guess the beauty.

The two sides exchanged a few more polite words, and the woman behind the screen said goodbye, handed the pipa to the maid, got up and walked out of the screen, revealing half of her side just now, and was about to disappear behind the curtain.

"Wait," a middle-aged man called her to stop, "Landlord, there is a reluctant invitation below, God has been friends for a long time, and he has long introduced you as a confidant, but he has never seen the true face, today is the day of his next birthday, can you get a glimpse of the face, the right to take it as a wish." ”

"This" The slender woman hesitated for a moment, then replied with a smile: "Why not, as long as a few people agree, I will see them outside in the future, just as I don't recognize each other, don't reveal my identity, let you see it." ”

The four people present immediately responded, and saw the woman in orange turn around, raise her hand and remove the sand, but it was Guan Rong's powdered face, and a beautiful and beautiful female writer was first published in the 55ab community.

The men were stunned for a moment, and then said loudly: "The landlord is really a beauty as the outside world says." ”

After a chuckle, the woman turned around, and left the room with a slight movement.

The two middle-aged men were still reminiscing about her smile in her eyes, but the two young men on the side were together and whispered.

"Is that her?" Turning his face black, he changed into a man's clothes and asked in a low voice.

"Hmph, that's her." Feng Yating replied with a cold face, "I was in Jianglingfang, and I saw her and Lu Zhi shopping in the silk shop with my own eyes, if you look carefully, you won't miss the little mole in the corner of her eye, just like what I told you before." ”

"Hmm," Yi Yu recognized the person, thanked Feng Yating again, and got up and followed.

In addition to the ground floor of the main building of this Kuixing Building, the upstairs is a long corridor in the shape of "Hui", there is no fork, and the Yu Yu chased out a few steps, and saw the master and servant who had just gone out in front.

"Please stay!"

In an empty room in the building, the owner of the Kuixing Building, who had unveiled the veil, sat facing each other, with a pot of fragrant tea in his hand.

"Miss Lu, I understand your feelings, I am also sad that a talented man like Lu Gongzi passed away like this without explanation. But you really misunderstood, although I am friends with Lu Gongzi, there is no relationship between men and women, and on the night of the accident of the second son of the eldest grandson's family, I happened to be not in the building, and your eldest brother did not meet me that day. ”

Yi Yu took his eyes off her and said, "I think my eldest brother won't kill anyone." ”

"Yes, that's what I thought." The woman on the other side nodded earnestly.

Yi Yu lowered his head and was silent for a moment, and when he looked up again, his face was no longer the question he had just now, and he said sadly: "My eldest brother never mentioned it, he has a friend of you, the ant hand fighting group, and he has many things to hide from me until he leaves." ”

Seeing that she looked like she wanted to cry, the woman hesitantly reached out and patted her hand on the side of the table, and said softly: "But you must know that he is hiding it from you, maybe he is afraid that you will be worried, maybe it is for your own good, but he doesn't want to harm you after all." ”

"Hmm," Yi Yu took a light breath and showed a stubborn smile at her, as if deliberately diverting this sad topic, and said, "What kind of incense does my sister use, it tastes good." ”

"Oh, this incense is called Shen Tan, the main ingredient is the chicken tongue incense in the south, I have used it for many years, and I have not been able to leave the body, if you like it, wait for someone to take some away for you, even if you don't smoke clothes, you can smoke the house."

"Don't bother, sister should still have something to do, I'm sorry, I've delayed you for so long, go get busy, it's getting late, I'm going back."

"Well, I won't keep you much today, after the fifteenth day of the month, if you are idle, you can come to me to play, I have a lot of good things in this building, but not those men know," said both of them and got up, and when they walked to the door, the woman asked, "You go back alone?" Do you want me to call a taxi to take you? ”

"No need, someone is coming to pick me up." Yi Yu hung the cloak on the crook of his arm, turned his head and said, "What do you call my sister." ”

"My surname is Chu, and I'm not afraid of your jokes, because I was born with him, my father gave me the word - don't stay."

Outside the Kuixing Tower, Yi Yu sat in the carriage, Li Tai put down the teacup in his hand, glanced at her little face with an unknown expression, and asked:

"How, is that her?"

"It's her," Yu Yu nodded, then shook her head, "It's not her, either."

"What do you say?"

"Miss Feng recognized that she was the woman who was shopping with my eldest brother, and she was also the owner of this Kuixing Building, but one by one" Yu Yu bit her lower lip and said in a deep voice:

"On the night of the eldest grandson's death, it was not her who was with my eldest brother."

Li Tai knew that she was so sure, there must be some reason, and there was some interest and curiosity in his heart, "Go on." ”

"Taste," Yi Yu replied sideways, "On the night of the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, that is, the night when the eldest grandson was killed, the night before the separation of the Guogong Mansion, my eldest brother came back drunk, I went to his room to find him, and when I helped him pack up his clothes, I smelled the smell of his body, which is the incense that only women use, because it is too sweet, and it has some fishy smell, which makes people remember it vividly, it is definitely not the smell of today's woman, I asked her, ruled out the possibility of changing the incense, I am not sure whether she lied or not, but she and my eldest brother are not in love with men and women, When I mentioned my eldest brother, she also reassured me that if there was affection or hatred, how could it be... Not her. ”

Li Tai's eyes flashed with appreciation, poured another cup of tea, and said: "But in this way, the clue will not be broken, who Lu Zhi was with that night is the key, just with the fragrance, you can rule out suspicion, but it is difficult to find the main owner." ”

"Yes," Yi Yu smiled bitterly and said, "I have ever thought that the girl named Fu Yao would meet the murderer who really killed Changsun Jian after my eldest brother, and she inquired about Fu Yao's whereabouts, but was told that person was ransomed and bought by the people of Changsun Family." ”

Li Tai didn't like to see her smile bitterly, so the topic diverged, and said: The hand-made version of this article was first published in the 55ab community "Speaking of incense, you should also learn to use it, do you like the taste?" Yesterday, the merchant handed over the order to Beijing, and you will choose one when you go back tonight, and you will use it to smoke clothes in the future. ”

Favorite taste? Yi Yu raised her head and looked at the light blue robe on his body through the chandelier in the car, and a faint aroma escaped from her nose, making her involuntarily whisper to herself:

"I love the taste."

"What?"

"No, whatever, I like to smell lighter."

Li Taiqing's blue eyes flashed, and he stretched out his hand in front of her and said, "What about this taste?" ”

His fingers are very long, the transparent nails are trimmed clean and smooth, and several pale cyan veins on the smooth back of the hand are clearly visible, but if you look closely, you can find that there is a layer of inconspicuous calluses on the first knuckle of his middle finger.

His hand was placed next to the tip of her nose, only two inches apart, and the faint smell of smoke was more clearly audible because of the temperature of the human body, she just inhaled unconsciously, then turned her head sideways to avoid his fingers, and said honestly:

"It smells good."

Li Tai's sharp eyes saw her flushed cheeks on the side, and the corners of her straight lips were raised lightly, and said, "Then you don't have to choose, when you plan to be with me openly, use this incense." ”

Hearing this, Yi Yu didn't have time to notice the sweetness in her heart, so she was covered up by greater sourness, and this sentence evoked some people and things she deliberately forgot: incense, the smell of Sun Xi's body in the chess competition, and being with him, the established status of the side concubine of the Oriental Pearl.

Li Tai was waiting for her to answer, but saw her turn her head, and the eyes of the ants were in the first chapter, and said: "It's still not necessary, if it is not necessary, if it is not a last resort, there are some things that I really don't share with others." ”

Because of her vague words, Li Tai frowned, and was about to ask, but the carriage under him suddenly stopped in the middle of running, he quickly clasped the window rail with one hand, leaned over and wrapped the other hand around Yu Yu's waist, so as not to let her fall forward.

"What's the matter?" After settling the Yu Yu and sitting down, Li Taiyi lifted the curtain of the car and asked in a cold voice.

In the dark room, in this winter night, there is not even a pot stove, but the room is still warm, only a palm-sized lotus-shaped candlestick rests on the small green head case full of papers, and there is a person sitting behind the case, with his head down, slowly turning the bamboo slips in the middle, and the simple text knocks each other, making a crisp sound of "click", which is the only sound in this room.

A figure flashed into the room, and the footsteps approached the lotus lamp, only to reflect an orange dress, but it was a slender woman.

"When the person left, I told her to listen to what you told me."

As soon as the woman lifted her skirt, she stepped on the carpet and walked around to the back of the case, and sat down next to the man, "It's just that this little girl is so pitiful, stupid and pitiful, the only relative who is dead at the moment, alone, and wants to verify, wants to overturn the case, it's really stupid, don't you say?" ”

The sound of bamboo slips was still "clicking", and I don't know how long it took before I heard a hoarse bass, and said:

"No, she's not stupid. Also, don't lean on me, I don't like the smell of strangers. ”

"Raw?" The woman moved some distance away in dissatisfaction and muttered quietly, "Okay, even if I've only known you for three days." (Fairy Sword.)
